Disclaimer: Not all of the doctors and other professionals listed on this site have the same treatment approach. We urge you to ask specific questions regarding training and experience before seeking treatment. Your decision to select a particular health care provider and/or treatment option is yours alone, and the KCNT1 Epilepsy Foundation bears no responsibility for the care provided by any professional listed on this site or for outcome of any treatment option you may select.

Criteria: Professionals listed on this site have treated patients with KCNT1 related disorders and/or related ion channelopathies and many have been recommended by their patients’ families. All recommended providers will be added to the list. If, however, an initial recommendation is withdrawn, or if the KCNT1 Epilepsy Foundation receives multiple complaints about a particular professional from families who have first-hand experience with that individual, then the Foundation may, in its discretion, elect to remove that professional from the site.
